Contextualizing the Javon Kinlaw contract: Was it fair value?

Contextualizing the Javon Kinlaw contract: Was it fair value?

Cary Edmondson-USA TODAY Sports Taking a look at Javon Kinlaw’s contract Late Monday night, the New York Jets and defensive tackle Javon Kinlaw agreed to a one-year, $7.25 million dollar contract. Of this $7.25 million, about $7 million was guaranteed. The deal was met with mixed reviews by Jets fans to put it kindly. Given Kinlaw’s lack of success for the San Francisco 49ers, many expected the deal to be far cheaper than it actually was, myself included. However, in an attempt to ascertain the degree to which the deal was actually good, bad, or ugly for the Jets, I...

New York Jets Flight Connections 03/17/24

Photo by Adam Hunger/ Bringing your daily links to the NFL’s New York Jets Good morning Gang Green Nation! With star offensive tackle Tyron Smith in the fold, the Jets biggest remaining need is at wide receiver, where there is pretty much nothing beyond Garrett Wilson on the roster. The Jets will likely select at least one, and maybe multiple wide receivers in the draft, but rookies aren’t always immediately productive. The free agent market is uninspiring, but that’s what we have to work with. The Jets have scheduled a meeting with Mike Williams on Monday. Odell...

Tommy Gilligan-USA TODAY Sports The Jets bring in a guard to help the offensive line Late Monday night, the New York Jets and offensive guard John Simpson agreed to a two-year, $18 million contract. While the exact guarantees around Simpson’s contract have yet to be announced, I would assume it’ll be around half. The deal was met by mostly mixed reviews among Jets fans, as many deals are. In an attempt to ascertain the degree to which the deal was good, bad, or ugly for the Jets, I will dive into Simpson’s Pro Football Focus (PFF) grades, as well as the contract...

New York Jets Flight Connections 3/15/24

Photo by Brandon Sloter/Image Of Sport/ Bringing your daily links to the NFL’s New York Jets Good morning, Gang Green Nation. I hope you’re all having a great start to the day. It’s being reported that the New York Jets are reportedly shopping around Allen Lazard. Whether the report is true or not, the story in and of itself is a little funny to think about. Lazard had a horrific season for the Jets last year, and, like Zach Wilson, the odds of him having a trade market from other teams seems closer to none than anything. It isn’t just the fact that Lazard had a...

Should the 49ers trade for Jets QB Zach Wilson?

Sam Navarro-USA TODAY Sports The 49ers are rumored to have interest in the Jets quarterback. The San Francisco 49ers have been in rumors about potentially trading for New York Jets Zach Wilson, who is expected to fetch only a late Day 3 pick in return. Wilson, the No. 2 pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, has had a tumultuous NFL career with the Jets, throwing for 6,293 yards, 23 touchdowns, and 25 interceptions in 34 career games, while completing only 57 percent of his passes. The 49ers had interest in Wilson back before the 2021 NFL Draft, but ultimately didn’t get a...

Tyron Smith departure creates multiple problems along Cowboys offensive line

Photo by Cooper Neill/ Tyron Smith is officially gone and the Dallas Cowboys now face quite the road to replacing him. The chances of having a good weekend took a turn on Friday night when it was reported that longtime Dallas Cowboys left tackle Tyron Smith was joining the New York Jets in free agency. It is a 1-year deal worth up to $20M, but much of that money is from playing incentives. Consider that the last NFL game to be played before Tyron Smith was a member of the league was the Super Bowl that Mike McCarthy won at then-Cowboys Stadium as the head coach of the...
